Reinhold Schraps

Reinhold Schraps (born August 3, 1833 in Leipzig , † March 14, 1917 in Dresden ) was a German lawyer and politician.

Schraps attended the Nikolaischule in Leipzig and studied there between 1852 and 1856 first philology and later law . From 1865 to 1870 he was a lawyer in Dresden. From December 1865 until the ban in July 1866, Schraps was editor of the magazine Reform . In 1866 he joined the Saxon People's Party and was elected to the Reichstag of the North German Confederation a year later in February 1867 . He is therefore, alongside August Bebel and Wilhelm Liebknecht, one of the very first social democratic members of the Reichstag. Although he still functioned as a Social Democratic candidate for the Reichstag in 1871 and retained his mandate in the Reichstag until 1874, he did not participate in the transition from the Saxon People's Party to the SDAP in 1869 , but remained a bourgeois democrat. In the early 1870s he voted in the Reichstag with the German People's Party . From 1870 he worked as a lawyer, first in Crimmitschau and from 1904 in Dresden.
